THE FUTURE WAR.

The Portuguese here, appear to
be very indignant at the prospect OF
more Asiatics, japanese or others,
being introduced here, and they in
tend that their dissatisfaction shall
be heard. Already the first gun
has been fred, as will be seen by
the following correspondence pub
lished in the last number OF 90
Luso Hawaiiano," the Portuguese
organ:
ave already begin to see how
the Reform Government intend
to keep the promises made to the
Portuguese at the time that their
vote was necessary to assure the
success of the elections. The Por-
tuguese were fools to accept to vote
on the faith Of the promises which
were made to them, without having
previously obtained some security.
And now we already hear of 1000
Japanese shortly expected to help
the planters to reduce the wages.
1t is probable that after these others
will follow, and the Portuguese with
their disappointment and the fine
promises they believed in. May
this serve them as a lesson for
another time, aud let them remem-
Der not to vote, in the future cleo
tons, for any man in the Govern
ment who is in favor of japanese
immigration"

uNpICNIEIED REPORTS.

EDITOR BULLETIN when one
reads report from committee of
the Legislature upon question re-
ferred to it by that body, one would
expect to find q concise and digni-
fed presentation of facts and con-
illusions. But the committee reports
of the extra session are disappointing
In this respect. They have been, as a
rule, verbose, fippant and partizan
to degree that seriously impairs
their value.
Take the report on the petition of
Henry Poor for 5000 back pay, and
the report by the same committee in
regard to J, d. Strong's connection
with the Samoan Embassy as sam
pies, and let any impartial and in
telligent man say whether, in his
opinion, these documents are worthy
of record as part of the proceedings
of any deliberative assembly. AS
political circulars or newspaper
'squibs" they might pass muster;
but as State papers they are undig-
nified in tone and loose in statement,
evidencing an absence of the judi
cial method in their composition. And
the terms in which the Minister of
the Interior moved the reference of
the j. d. Strong report back to the
committee was on a par with the
report itself. 1t was not witty but
it certainly was undignifed, and the
Legislature should have resented it.
Doubtless the Samoan Mission was
a dlsgraceful episode in Hawaiian
history, and the facts should be
fully and faithfully presented, but
the silly twaddle of the twin reports
does not accomplish this end. 1t
only serve to throw ridicule upon the
Legislature, because in express
terms the country itself is sneered
at. 1t is hardly proper for COM
mittee of the Legislature to speak
of "the little Kingdom of Hawaii J"
let some other authority belittle it,
and not the men who are engaged in
making its laws, who profess to
honor its flag, and who have sworn
to its Constitution. ''The whole
pitiful story of the Samoan Mis-
sion is summarized by the statement
of the Minister of Foreign Affairs"
is the generalization of the report
upon Mr.. Poor's petition, followed
by string of high sounding isent-
ences, accumulated by exclamation
points, having no bearing upon. the
subject matter of reference. There
is nothing "pitiful" in the Samoan
"story." There has been criminal
waste of public money, and someone
should be held responsible; but
turgid rhetoric is not an equivalent
for this waste, and the Legislature
should not be content with 1t. In
conclusion, one would hardly expect
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1887-11-30

to hnd the following fippant sent
ence in any Legislative report: "By
this convenient little arrangement
the Bureau of the Post Office was to
be compelled to contribute to the
eccentricities Of the Foreign Depart
ment.' The ungrammatical tumble
of nonsense which the Sanitary Com
mittee presented in the shape of a

Health regarding the Sisters of
Charity at Kokaako is another illus
tration of the defects in the COM

SIR:-I have the honor to acknow-
ledge the receipt of your note OF
to-day's date, in response to mine of
the 22nd instant, touching the pend
ing Supplementary Convention be-
tween the United States and His
Majesty the King of the Hawaiian
Islands.
The amendment relating to the
harbor of Pearl River was adopted in
its Executive Session by the Senate,
and have no other means of arriv
ing at its intent and meaning than
the words employed naturally import.
No ambiguity or obscurity in that
amendment is observable and can
discern therein no subtraction from
Hawaiian Sovereignty over the harbor
to which it relates nor any language
importing a longer duration for the
interpolated Article ii. than is pro-
vided for in Article /. of the Supple
mentary Convention.
The limitation of my official powers
does not make it competent for me
in this connection to qualify, expand
or explain the amendments engrafted
on that Convention by the Senate,

world, whero responsible govern
ment Is in force, would presume to
introduce an Army Bill. Leave to
introduce such q bill would be
promptly refused if any private
member had the temerity to give
notice of it. But here a bill to
create a small standing army and
territorial militia is introduced by
one private member, while another
introduces a bill to establish mill
tary dictatorship, both involving
heavy expenditure of public money
and burdening the taxpayers.
A proceeding of this kind is UNI
heard of elsewhere, although doubt
less q precedent may be found in
the Hawaiian Legislature under the
old regime. 1t is the duty of the
Foreign Minister to introduce an
Army Bill if he sees fit; it is not the
duty of the Acknowledgement to do
so. All policy bills should be set
tied in Cabinet and stood by in the
Legislature; hut the Cabinet is not
agreed upon any policy, and the I'M
pleasant spectacle is presented of a
conflict of opinion on the Ministc-
rial bench, and of Cabinet measures
being dragged along the floor of the
House at the tail of private men,
bers. This is not an exhibition Of
Ministerial responsibility, and the
country cannot be deceived thereby.
There are two policy bills before
the Legislature fathered by the Cab
met, one does away with the Office
of Governor, and the other, which
is its complement, provides for re-
organizing the police force-as a
matter of fact, it makes the Attor-
ney-General "the larger part" of the
Government, if not of the Legisla-
ture also. Now, suppose that the
| Government fails to pass one or
both of these bills, would Ministers
resign? Not at all. The Legisla-
ture would not have passed direct
vote of want of confidence, and the
Administration would stick to their
seats like llmpets to a rock. But
were responsible Government in
operation, Ministers would forth
with send their designations to the
King and let him select a Ministry
that would be able to carry its
measures, thus showing that it had
the confidence of the Legislature.
1t will be apparent from what has
been said above, that Ministerial
responsibility does not exist in fact
or constructively, and that the pre-
sent Cabinet, by constitutional
provision, has rendered it extreme
ly difficult to bring it into operation
under any circumstances. Let the
Police and Army bills become law
and the country will have perpe-
tual Cabinet, an irresponsible mill
tary junta, and trucking and
subservient Legislature. That is
what before the country; what lies
behind everyone knows. 81 am

MINISTERIAL RESPONSIBILITY.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1887-11-30

WEDNESDAY, NOV. 80, 1887.
MINISTERIAL RESPONSIBILITY.

EDITOR BuLLErIN:-Thanks for
your remarks on this subject in
Saturdays issue; thanks also to
your able correspondent, LEX, non
Rex" in the same paper.
There is not so much as a decent
pretence of Ministerial responsibility
in the existing order of affairs.
Ministers sink responsibility on
policy bills, and take defeat after
defeat upon questions of finance and
administration with the utmost COM
plaisance, having entrenched them
selves in office by Article Al of the
Constitution of July 18th, 1887, which
provides that they can only be re-
moved by the King "upon vote of
want of confidence passed by ma
jority of all elective members of the
Legislature, or upon conviction of
felony"
This provision of the Constitution
which the Cabinet presented to
the King and compelled his i'm
mediate ratification, is opposed in
spirit to the principle and practice
of Constitutional Government in
countries where Ministerial respon-
sibility exists. 1t is very easy to
conceive of conditions under which
a Cabinet, placed in office as the
present Hawaiian Cabinet has been,
might he unable to carry any of its
measures and yet avoid direct vote
of want of confidence. Under Minis
terial responsibility the Cabinet
would have resigned when it was
defeated some time ago on its finan-
cial proposals by vote of 10 to II;
but instead of resigning, Ministers
accepted the vote of censure without
grimace, and promised to- intro
duce Bill of Indemnity to cover
their illegal expenditure of public
money. The censure was all the
more marked because the Cabinet
voted as unit to pass the Supple
mental Appropriation Bill intended
to cover up their unlawful acts. If
Ministers had abstained from voting,
the Legislature would have con-
demned their financial policy by a
majority of six.
The Cabinet also shirks response
bility by entrusting important policy
bills to private members. This is
VIGOROUSLY the case in the two
Military Bills before the Legis-
lature. 1t is an open secret, which
nobodyHw deny, that the Army
Bill introduced by Mr.. Cecil
Brown is a Ministerial measure
drafted by the Foreign Minister,
while it is equally well understood
that Mr.. Warehouse fathers the
bill of the Attorney-General. Both
therefore are properly Ministerial
measures, but they do not so come
before the House, and the Cabinet
shirks responsibility for one of the
most important proposals of public
policy that can be submitted to o
Legislature.
Such course would not be pos
sible were the principle of Ministe-
rial responsibility either understood
or in operation in this country. 1t
would be the duty of the Cabinet to
introduce measure of this kind
and stand or fall by it. No private
member OF any Legislature in the
